http://www.scp-wiki.net/how-to-write-an-scp is a guide we send lots of people to, and I noticed today while linking it to someone that it goes straight from formatting and templates to posting on the mainlist, without the intervening business of soliciting feedback. I'd like someone to include that, and I may have time in a few days if nobody else does between now and then.
Added a section to the "Posting" tab as follows:
To post for feedback:
- Put your article/tale in the sandbox.
- Make a post on the drafts forum linking your sandbox or go to the chat and link it there. NB: Do not post your entire article as a thread - only a link to the sandbox!
- Consider the feedback to be in good faith, and revise appropriately, going through the feedback process again if necessary. Talk to staff if you think someone is acting in genuinely bad faith or against the criticism policy.
- Repeat these steps until ready to publish your article, then move on to the below section.
(The "below section" being the regular posting information for posting to the mainsite.)
Perhaps we should put a note about being patient in there, or explicitly tell the reader not to bump their thread?
This is my next major project on my guide rewrite project. I just need to finish the survey first
If CO has this on their radar, let’s hold off on taking any immediate action until they take the lead.

I think Tuomey's additions are quite good enough for now until a more thorough overhaul is attempted.
If CO is fine with it, that works for me.
